On the Right-click menu for a picture frame, there is an item "Get
Picture ...". Could I request a new item "Paste Picture Path"
Why is this? Well if I run DigiKam in Linux, and Right-Click > Copy on a
thumbnail, the pasted contents of the clipboard are something like:
file:///home/davecs/Data/clipart/Camera/2006/01/07/r0012645.jpg
(this is obviously a specific path on my system)
Now perhaps if this were another program, the paste may have been:
/home/davecs/Data/clipart/Camera/2006/01/07/r0012645.jpg
or someone using the windows version may be
C:\My Pictures\2006\01\07\r0012645.jpg or even file:///c:/My
Pictures/2006/01/07/r0012645.jpg
But what I ask is that if an attempt is made to paste and from the text
on the clipboard, a valid graphic file can be located, then that graphic
will populate that picture frame. It would make it easier for users to
drop in graphics from other cataloguing programs.
